Official faction/clan support?

[majesty327 1]

Well, was brainstorming something to post for my first post, saw "Suggestions" and said out loud to myself "Hey, I have a pretty neat idea!", and so I did. Here it is. Why not add official faction/clan support to the DayZ mod? Such as the inability to harm your fellow friends, or the ability to track what servers they are playing on, or when they are playing, the ability to message your entire group with updates to the clan and rules, or even the ability to share reasources and trade from a distance within the same server. Simply food for thought. PM me if you have any ideas that could add on to/improve this suggestion, and I shall edit my post to give you credit, and share your idea (for ease of reading, so people don't have to serach the entire topic for things that add on to the idea). Thanks for reading. :D

PS, I am a newbie to DayZ, and would appreciate it if you would be gentle to my newbie-ness.

[...] Such as the inability to harm your fellow friends [...]

No thank you very much, the game should stay believable (as far as you can call a Zombie game believable ..).

And just because you like someone it doesn't mean your bullets will not kill him.

[...]or the ability to track what servers they are playing on, or when they are playing[...]

I would like to see a Buddy system, so that you can join the same server as a friend very easily (but since the game is going to be on steam anyway I don't think this is going to be a problem)

[...]the ability to share reasources and trade from a distance within the same server. Simply food for thought.[...]

You mean like a Global (clan) Inventory ?

What I would like to see is the ablility to put clan markings on a vehicle and emblems on a Players clothing.

Been suggested numerous times; yes we would like to see a buddy system in game.

Such as the inability to harm your fellow friends,

Shoot at your IRL friend, is he imperwious to bullets? No? then why should they be in a "realistic" survival game.

or the ability to track what servers they are playing on, or when they are playing, the ability to message your entire group with updates to the clan and rules,

Welcome to the wonderfull world of online gaming(and internet)

Go to dayz main page, DL DayzCommander, has this function called friends, use it if your a retail player. Or if you play via steam... well you know what to do.

or even the ability to share reasources and trade from a distance within the same server.

Are you going to ask for space magic next?

I'm gonna have to say no. First off, its not realistic. Second, it just doesn't fit with DayZ. Sorry.

It would be better and whole lot more dynamic of there was no faction system whatsoever.

Dude. No, thanks.
